New Beginnings

I ran an ad for the kittens and two were gone on the first call. Both black kittens are gone now and their mother Nelly hasn't stopped calling for them all day. She did calm down when she saw Gilbert. He's the gray tabby male and the only one left now. 

I told Ray if no one asks for him, I guess we'll keep him too. I said it just may be God's will. He said he'd put up a pic of him at the vet just so more of God's people can know he's available. lol 
That Ray is a funny guy.

The turkey is thawing in the fridge and all the groceries are in for thursday's big feast. I asked a few to dinner but no takers. Some just aren't into Thanksgiving. As for me...well...it's always been a tradition for me to make mom and granny's dressing. They made the best sage dressing in the world and each year when I take those bites, memories of them just fill my mind and it's almost as though they're still with me. The leftovers are awesome too!

After the feast is over, the Christmas tree will go up. We bought a small white tree this year and it's already decorated with red and gold ornaments, white lights and red velvet bows. It even has a small angel with a red velvet gown for the topper. It's safely tucked away upstairs away from prying and batting paws. This will be Peety's first Christmas tree experience. We just know he would be the one to climb the big tree and decided that the drama was more than I wanted to deal with, so the small tree should do fine. I'll take pics and post them sometime during the holidays.


I've invited the family here this year and hope the weather cooperates. It's going to be fun.
